I cant upgrade a skin into a permanent

All Day Tay Tay··1 votes·6,054 views

So, i have 2 lvl 6 swain tokens, and a tyrant swain SHARD. I own the skin, but i wanna use it as the permanent to get my level 6. But because i own the skin already, i cant make it into a permanent, so i cant use it to upgrade my mastery level

You need to Combine 2 Mastery tokens with:

  • A champion shard of the same champ
  • OR the champ permanent of the same champ
  • OR 600 blue essence, to unlock Level 6

Straight from here.

like i said, i have a skin shard. I CANT TURN IT INTO A PERMANENT BECAUSE I ALREADY OWN THE SKIN. i have 2 mastery tokens. i dont have his champ shard, or 600 blue essence. i have a skin shard, but i cant upgrade it to use it

You CAN'T use a SKIN shard or SKIN permanent to upgrade champ mastery.

You HAVE to use a CHAMPION shard or CHAMPION permanent or Blue Essence to upgrade champ master.

You can only break down that Tyrant Swain skin shard for Orange Essence or use 2 other skins for a different random skin permanent. You cannot use skin shards in champion mastery.

A champ permanent is kind of useless. It's a crafted Champ Shard that sits in your inventory because you already have the champion.

why would i ever do that. if i have the shard, why would i upgrade it to use for mastery

I don't know. I don't know why the option exists. Though, you are trying to craft a skin shard you already own, so there is that.

because the way i understood it was the permanent would give me the lvl 6

Skin shards or permanents create orange essence which can't be used for champion mastery. Its that simple. You can buy some random champion shards for IP and disenchant them for Blue Essence, and if you lucky you might get a Swain shard, either of these can be used for Champion mastery.

Skin shards/permanents don't work for champion mastery. A skin shard/permanent is very different from a Champion shard/permanent!

You cannot upgrade a skin shard into a permanent if you already own the skin. You can do this with champion shards, for gods only know what reason, but you cannot do it for skin shards.

You need a champion shard or a champion permanent to upgrade to level 6, however you are misunderstanding what a champion permanent is. A champion shard is something you already know, a shard of the champion you get from hextech chests. A champion permanent, however, is what you get when you re-roll 3 champion shards. That is what a champion permanent is, it's not just any permanent unlockable piece of content. You will not be able to use the Tyrant Swain shard, or any skin shard for that matter, to upgrade to level 6.

Make a new thread, with your own bug. Then use clipping tool in Windows to cut out a picture of your problem. Then use a site like imgur or something like that to post it online so you can copy the URL (it has to end in a .png, .jpg, or .gif) and paste it into the body of your post.
